Gale and Rain dealt with Kassy and his lackeys.
Luke had suspected that Kassy was involved in the collapse of The Galleria. He believed that his subordinates would be able to extract an answer from Kassy with their interrogation methods, and he would be able to give a satisfactory explanation to the families of the victims and the media.
When Bianca woke up the next morning, all that she read in the papers were about the abduction incident, as well as the news that Kassy, the mastermind behind it, found half-dead in the outskirts of A City.
The media was most surprised that the woman was implicated in the collapse of The Galleria.
T Corporation had presented the evidence they found, and all of the evidence pointed that Kassy was the culprit. Her accomplice was Wayne Blatt of the Blatt family, who played a vital role in the crime.
The public was shocked by the revelation. They could not imagine how those two characters conspired nor understand the reason behind the deed.
That was until a complete video was revealed to the public.
Kassy sat in a questioning room. She divulged the entire truth.

Therefore, she blew up The Galleria as an act of revenge. Taking advantage of the chaos and that the public opinion was directed at T Corporation, she bought up a large amount of T Corporation shares and sold them at a low price to destabilize the market.
She wanted the public to lose confidence in Luke Crawford and T Corporation.
After that, she abducted Bianca Rayne, Luke Crawford's wife in public and set off several explosives on the street, not showing any regard to the sanctity of human life.
For a while, the news was the talk of the town.
The public could not believe that a woman committed a series of serious crimes out of unrequited love.
Due to the severity of her crimes, the special police had detained her in a secret location.
However, Wayne Blatt, her accomplice, remained at large. His whereabouts had beca mystery.
A bounty was issued on Wayne Blatt. Anyone who provided information of Wayne's whereabouts that would lead to his arrest would receive a one million dollar reward. Instantly, everyone was caught up in the hype.
Bianca was surprised that Luke's subordinates could be so efficient. Kassy had confessed to her crimes so readily.
While she was lost in thought, her phone on the coffee table started to ring.
She glanced at the screen and quickly answered the phone. "Dad."
She had been occupied for the past two days, but she suddenly remembered that her mother was suffering from depression again.
She had promised Queenie that she would visit, and she felt guilty that she had not fulfilled her promise.
On the other end of the phone, Jack sounded stern but also angry. "Bea, you didn't tellthat you and the children were abducted! I wouldn't have known about it if I hadn't watched the news. Why didn't you
tellabout something so serious?"
Bianca's heart felt warm even though Jack was reprimanding her.
"Dad, I didn't tell you because I didn't want you or Mom to be worried about me. Mom hasn't been in good health lately, and I heard that she's suffering from depression again. I don't want her condition to worsen after knowing what happened to me... I'm sorry, I shouldn't have kept it from you, and I promise that I won't do it again. Is Mom feeling better? I'll be coming hlater to visit you..."
Jack sighed. "Your mom is fine. Her mood is better after srest at home, but she eats poorly. I didn't dare let her know about your abduction. In any case, you'll have to letknow about it as soon as you can. I'm your father, and I think I've failed you for only finding out about your abduction through the news..." "You're the best dad in the world and the best grandfather to the children, Dad. It's not your fault. I promise you that I won't do this again. I'll let you know if anything happens to me, alright?"
Jack felt a little better after getting that promise from his daughter.

Luke was working in the study. He noticed that Bianca was anxious, so he put away the documents in his hand. "What's wrong? Why are you running?"
Bianca held his hand and told him, "I want to visit my mom, Luke. Dad just called to tellthat Mom hasn't been eating well recently. I'm afraid that she's suffering from depression again, so..."
Luke saw that Bianca was so anxious that she was not speaking clearly. He picked up the coat from the rack and said, "Alright, let's go and visit Mom."
Ever since the abduction, Luke dared not let Bianca go out by herself.
He drove the car straight to the Norman residence and arrived there an hour later.
Jack had been staying at hand taking care of his wife for the past few days.
Leia was also obedient during that period. She accompanied Queenie every day and learned from the caretaker how to cook light meals. Jack's impression of his adoptive daughter becbetter.
When Leia saw Luke and Bianca coming through the door bearing presents, she grunted and looked away, not willing to let them see the jealousy in her eyes.
Bianca ignored Leia and went directly to her mother's bedroom.
Tears nearly fell from her eyes when she saw the frail woman who leaned on the headboard. "Mom..."
She could not believe that her mother's condition worsened so much in only a few days.
"Bea, Luke, you're here." Queenie found it hard to speak, but her gaze was brimming with love.
Luke hugged Bianca and went to the bedside. "I've heard that you haven't been feeling well, Mom, so I'm here with Bea to visit you. How are you feeling lately? Should I get sdoctors from overseas to treat you?"
